Thargoid technology is vastly different from existing human technology. Not only are their ships seemingly invulnerable to conventional weapons, but they possess the ability to interdict human ships that are traveling through hyperspace, a feat previously believed to be impossible, as well as the ability to make untraceable hyperspace jumps and stymie any pursuers. | Thargoid technology is vastly different from existing human technology. Not only are their ships seemingly invulnerable to conventional weapons, but they possess the ability to interdict human ships that are traveling through hyperspace, a feat previously believed to be impossible, as well as the ability to make untraceable hyperspace jumps and stymie any pursuers. Thargoid weaponry is very powerful. Its end results in the form of numerous destroyed Federal vessels, including two capital ships, demonstrates that their ships wield formidable firepower. Also, several commanders have reported being attacked by the Thargiods, most being killed very quickly. As far as we know, no Thargiod ship has been destroyed by humans. | ||
[[Alien Structure]]s, so-called "barnacles", are known to be related to the Thargoids and their ships. As the structures produce [[Meta-Alloys]], it is possible that Meta-Alloys are an important resource used by Unknown Ships. | [[Alien Structure]]s, so-called "barnacles", are known to be related to the Thargoids and their ships.
